yes...but they have to be trained. chimps do.
^ I don't see how fish were trained, or bees, or monkeys, or any of the other animals sent into space.
Yes. In 1947 fruit flies were launched into space. On June 14, 1949 the first space monkey was shot into space. Animals were initially used to test conditions before humans were sent there. Six national space programs have flown animals into space: six nations have put animals in space the Soviet Union, the United States,France, China, Japan and Iran. Though initially used in place of humans, animals were later sent to explore biological effects in space.
Desert foxes live in a warm climate, therefore it has to stay cool. It does this by having large ears as it reduces the body heat because the blood passes close to the surface of the skin through their ears. Remember a larger surface area allows more heat loss.
Why humans seem to have much less hair than the gorilla or chimpanzee?
Because - over many thousands of years, humans evolved the intelligencce to learn how to build more permanent shelters that developed into insulated homes. This reduced the need for a thick coat of fur, so successive generations had less dense hair. Today, our body hair is much thinner than our chimpanzee 'cousins'.
What kind of symmetry does chimpanzees have?
Dolphins, like all vertebrates, have bilateral symmetry. This means they have symmetry across one plane (known as the sagittal plane, and directly down the centre of their body), which means one side of their body approximately mirrors the other side.
-yes people do kill lemurs for their fur and their meat..people think that those cute lil creatures would make perfect dresses for idiots and furs..s0 yes the kill them n0t in all c0untries tho..x x
What are the environmental adaptations of chimpanzees?
Chimpanzees have long, flexible arms that enable them to climb trees and swing across the jungle with ease. They're also strong - as much as six times stronger than the average adult human.
Chimps also have developed large ears, enabling them to not only hear many sounds, but even determine their nature and source from a great distance. Their thick, coarse hair works well as both insect and rain repellant. And, they've also learned to utilize found objects as tools, such as twigs for digging up ants and rocks for cracking open nuts.
How would you describe a chimp?
They are primates, like us, and our closest living relatives, sharing almost all of our DNA.
It's a type of ape.
A chimpanzee is a type of ape.it has four legs. it knows how to climb. It clings on toits mother back
A chimp is an African ape and one of the four great ape species--chimpanzee, bonobo, gorilla, and orangutan. They are the closest living genetic cousins to humans.
First, check yourself into an insane asylum; chimps are about the worst pets in the whole world (in fact most primates are; ask anyone who has worked with them). A chimp is essentially a much stronger, not-toilet trained, even more tempermental teenager that could attack its owner at any time. Even trained individuals will get attacked and sometimes disfigured/killed (chimp males' first target is usally the scrotum---they rip off other chimps' scrotums in fights and captive chimps have ripped off human males' scrotums as well).
If you still want a chimp, you will have to either get it illegally (they are an endangered CITES animal, so regardless of where you live, in any country on earth it is illegal to own one and usually comes with stiff fines and some jail depending on the country) OR you will have to go through lots of training etc and obtain lots of money to build a facility where they will let you have one. The training depends on what you want to do with it; you could get a PhD and get hired by a primate research facility or get the millions of $ it costs to build one with grants, you could get other higher degrees to work in chimp rescues, etc.
Once you get the chimp, you'll want to have a special location for it or at least make it wear diapers, since you can't toilet train them (it makes sense---they live up in the canopy so their poo never bothers them so they never learned not to foul their own den like dogs and such). You'll need to get monkey chow and supplemental food, especially fruits (but be careful about which ones; some can harm monkeys and apes). And then you'll want to pray that everything works out ok.
What was the name of the chimpanzee that went to space?
No monkey was ever lost in space.
On June 11, 1948 a rhesus monkey named Albert died of suffocation while in a rocket test flight. He went up 63 kilometres, so he never left the earths atmosphere.
On September 16, 1949 Albert III, another rhesus monkey was supposed to go into space, but died when his rocket exploded at 10 km.
Other monkeys were killed in other rocket tests, and some of them did go into space. However in all those cases the deaths were due to crashes on landing, or other complications after landing.

The info above is so compelling that I don't want to edit it.
The monkey-like creature appearing in the movie Lost In Space was named Blarp, after the sound it made. I never found the sound or the name satisfying-- it sounds so much like a jumble of typical English phonemes. Of course the creature doesn't exist, but... blarp? Let's say I had trouble suspending disbelief.
The source for the following is the 'Lost In Space, TV' link below.
"Penny Robinson: (Angela Cartwright) An 11-year-old, she loves animals and classical music. She acquires a chimpanzee-like alien pet that made one sound, "Bloop". While it is sometimes remembered by that name, Penny had named the creature Debbie. Most of Penny's adventures have a fairy-tale quality, underscoring her innocence. She is also Dr. Smith's helpful mate."
What are plants called when they are eaten by other living things?
There are either herbivores that eat plants (cows, horses, etc) or carnivores that eat animals (like lions, dogs, tigers, etc) or omnivores that eat both plants and animals (like us, humans).
Heterotrophs are organisms that consume other organisms (such as autotrophs).
Other words are cannibal, consumer, and predators.
A study done in the 1920s found that Chimps were four times stronger than able-bodied college football players. The 2009 research paper "The Strength of Great Apes and the Speed of Humans" by Prof. Alan Walker writes:
"Bauman (1923, 1926) showed that adult male and female chimpanzees held long in captivity were much stronger than any of several fit young football players when normalized for body mass. He had the animals (when they felt like it) and the students pull on a calibrated metal loop dynamometer. The female recorded a two-handed pull of 1,260 pounds,while the male recorded a one-handed pull of 847 pounds. The strongest student managed a one-handed pull of 210 pounds and a two-handed pull of 491 pounds. When normalized for body mass, this meant that the chimpanzees were more than four times as strong as the men."
Prof. Walker theorizes that the reason Chimps are so much strong is because they have less grey matter in their spinal cord, meaning there are less muscle neurons to activate small muscle groups. On top of that, they do not have the types of biological limiters that humans have because they do not have as many fine motor control muscles to protect. This ultimately means that they can access larger sections of muscle at once.
Gorillas are probably twice as strong as Chimps. I've seen estimates of them being eight to nine times stronger than humans. I couldn't even begin to imagine what it would be like to be that strong.
What are natural predators of fruit bats?
Hawks and owls prey upon fruit bats. So do domestic cats. Humans even sometimes kill them because they are not always something you want in your yard, although they do kill the mosquitoes and other undesirable insects.
How does a screw make life easier?
A screw converts rotational force into linear force, or vice versa. A screw jack, for example, converts the rotational force of a hand lever, or a motor, that rotates around a centre pivot point, into a linear force that extends or retracts a threaded rod. The rod can be used to lift a car, open a flap, or steer a wheel.
.
Another example of a screw is the Archimedes Screw, in which a long screw propeller encased in a tube. The Archimedes Screw lifts, or pumps, a fluid, such as water, through the tube to a higher location.
.
A carpenter's screw uses its threads to bind objects (often pieces of wood) together. As the carpenter turns the screw, it forces the threaded shaft to drive deeper into the wood until it becomes tightly affixed.
.
These examples make life easier because, in the case of a jack, people are not strong enough to lift a car, but with the aid of a screw jack, a single person can crank the jack handle and thus lift the car (or part of the car) off the ground. An Archimedes Screw made life easier, as it was the first known example of a mechanical pump that lifted fluid from one level to a higher level. The carpenter's screw makes life easier because a screw will hold pieces of wood together stronger and more securely than a nail will, and unlike most nails, a screw can be easily reversed out of the wood.
It holds things together better than a nail.
Is there any monkeys that are legal in the UK?
Most Monkey species need a Dangerous wild animal license to own. a license can only be granted by your local authority and the minimum age is 18. some species do not need a license, but there needs still have to be legal meet under the animal welfare act.
monkeys are not pets, they are intelligent, unpredictable and social (most species) animals and are difficult and expensive to look after. unless you can keep them in top quality zoo conditions, including indoor and outdoor enclosures, enclosure designs, maintaining and controlling social groups, nutrition, evacuation procedures in emergencies, procedures in case of escape, ext, then you shouldn't own one.

What are some human characteristics of Ireland?
Ireland is famous for being green. It has a lot of trees, grass and plants. There are no deserts in Ireland. The climate is not warm enough and it gets a lot of rain. Because of the amount of rain, there are lots of rivers and lakes in Ireland. There are also many mountains and valleys. A large amount of Ireland's mountains are close to the coast. Some mountains can be found inland, but there is a lot of flatter land and bogland in the middle of the country. The western side of Ireland has a lot of bays and inlets and on a map the east coast looks a lot smoother. See the maps at the link below.
